Overeating or over indulging in one meal definitely makes me e act up. Mostly when it's holiday time and there's just so much food around.

I am overweight (but working on it, lol) and I have P... although from what I have seen it is quite a mild case (at the moment).

Funny I gained weight in 1993 and I gained P in 1994   Embarrassed

Those of you who are not over weight or underweight do you think your flare ups may have anything to do with hormones (girls that time especially)?

Definitely chicky. Mine flares up with my cycle, stress (hormonal imbalances).. etc.

Whichever weight I have been, it does not cause my P to be ant differant.  What does make it mean is, chlorinated water and synthetic fibres, even wool will make it itch.  I also cannot wear just any type of metal Undecided

psoriasis could be less to do with your wieght and more to do with what you eat to make you gain the weight

weird.
I have recently wondered about this.
Do you have any information linking E or P to weight gain?
I have A-topic dermatitis and have always been able to keep in under control but in the last year its been so bad and I cant control it and I have gained weight.
I thought maybe my skin would clear if I lost weight for some reason.
Is there a link between the two?
